India 3G licence to start filming February 25

Author: Zhangnan According to the latest news, India has announced the launch date of the 3G Wireless Spectrum License Auction, the date is February 25, is expected to end from March 3 to 5th, WiMAX auction will be held in the next two weeks-the auction has undergone several delays, the Indian side of the latest auction date announced February 12. It is understood that the "5.5 billion dollars" is the Indian government's bid for the target. According to sources, India's finance minister, Pranab, led by the Cabinet special team has approved in principle the Indian Telecom Department of the annual Spectrum utilization fee increase of 2% proposals. The move means that all India's mobile operators will deliver 443 million more dollars a year to the government.　　According to the latest news, India in order to ensure that its operators have sufficient funds to auction, deliberately revised the rules of corporate foreign lending.　　The data show India has overtaken China as the world's fastest-growing telecoms market – the country's 18 operators have roughly 15 million new mobile subscribers each month. 3 Zhang, not 4 reporters from the source learned that the auction, India is very likely to issue only 3 3G licences, rather than the previous market expected 4.　　Local media in India said the move was a big blow to those who expect additional business opportunities from the 3G licences. Indian Government bidding documents show that the 3G auction, the Indian side decided to target 22 operating areas, each in the 2.1GHz frequency band allocated 3 segments of 5x2mhz spectrum. In addition, for state-owned operators MTNL and BSNL, in addition to the above spectrum allocation, will also obtain the previous government promised 5MHz spectrum, in fact, the two operators have been allowed to operate the 3G business earlier-the data show that in December 2008, MTNL announced the first launch in India 3G,　　Three months later, BSNL also launched 3G services in the northern and eastern parts of India.　　In stark contrast to "India's new tens of thousands of subscribers per month", the two operators did not get "substantial gains" from the launch of 3G, which showed that, as of last August, BSNL had developed only 10,000 3G users, while MTNL only 400.　　Nokia Siemens Communications, an unnamed person pointed out that the Indian operators lack of "monopoly", in addition, "lack of application" also led to BSNL, MTNL 3G operating conditions. Global equipment manufacturers of the "battleground" "Bric" one, with 1.2 billion people-India has long become the communications equipment manufacturers "battleground". Huangdabin, general manager of ZTE India, said to reporters, "The current global mobile user penetration rate is about 60%, while India is about 40%." India is also expected to have 400 million new user development space. According to Huawei insiders, BSNL was born in 2001 when the Government of India's telecoms ministry, which previously monopolized the national Telephone service, was "entrepreneurial". Immediately, BSNL began a large-scale construction network, the Indian telecom market has become a global communications equipmentThe main battlefield of commercial competition, "everyone wants to have a piece in India." "2001, they divided the country into four east and West regions, by district tender." BSNL didn't want to use the same supplier as rival Bharti, and the first one out was Nokia. The final result is Siemens East, Alcatel-Lucent in the west, Ericsson in North, and Motorola in the south. "There is no big equipment supplier in India, so competition is mainly between international equipment providers," said the person familiar with the matter. Especially after ZTE, Huawei entered the Indian market, the original east, west, south, north of the pattern has been basically broken.　　"So, for various reasons, India postponed the bid for the 3G licence, the first one to sit on is the telecommunications equipment manufacturers-Alcatel-Lucent CEO Verwaayen said the Indian telecom market demand has rapidly shifted from voice services to other value-added services," India's delay in issuing 3G licences has hindered the development of the telecommunications market. " Huangdabin also sees India as a "touchstone" for global communications equipment manufacturers, he said. Can occupy a place in the Indian telecommunications equipment market, in the rest of the world is not afraid. Ericsson, NSN share is very large, Ericsson entered the earliest, 20 years of cultivation. "India is the single largest overseas market for ZTE and the biggest for Ericsson," Huangdabin said.　　"Nuggets unimpressed", Chinese companies are uncertain about the prospects of Chinese companies in India "Nuggets unimpressed", a device manufacturer related people said "not too optimistic", "the two countries ' special ' geo-relationship ' will add a lot of uncertainties to the development of Chinese enterprises in India." According to the reporter understands, India anti-dumping and the joint tax department last April 21 to the origin or imports from China's synchronous digital transmission equipment to carry on anti-dumping investigation.　　The Indian Ministry of Finance December 8 issued a notice on its official website to impose a maximum of 236% anti-dumping duties on SDH equipment exported to India by China. "This is not a problem between business and business, but a rise between countries."　　"The Ministry of Commerce has been working closely with vendors to discuss measures to unify the response," the source said. ZTE's yellow standard is not pessimistic: "The dominance of procurement is in the hands of operators, not the Indian government." In fact, Indian operators are strongly opposed to the government's restrictions on Chinese equipment companies because they have relied on the quality and price of ' Made in China '. ”
